No. They do not. Docker wants to manage containers but nix wants them in the store. I went so far as writing a derivation and tool for pulling a container into the nix store without docker so it could be docker loaded.

I really don't like docker.

At the very least Nix would make your Docker builds more reliable. Granted, you could then start making arguments for "why use Docker at all", but i can't answer that.
